    Doing The Right Thing Is Not Always The 'done' Thing

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 3, 2010
     | 3,680 views

    A short talking looking at how Zacchaeus and Jesus both did the right thing, even though in the eyes of those around them it was not the 'done' thing. Jesus in particular upset 'all the people' by eating a meal with Zacc. It was not the 'done' thing - but

    There is a phrase from my childhood that has been rattling around in my brain this morning. Some might say it is rattling around because it is bouncing around all by itself with no other thoughts to keep it company! Yes, I know, we men are not too good at doing two things at once, but I’m ...read more

    Real Change

    Relationship with Jesus leads to real change, as it did for Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10)

    There are a lot of places the preacher can go with this text, and I suspect many of the hearers and readers will have been exposed to most of them. One of the traditional, and absolutely valid and true, expositions includes Jesus’ choice to minister to those who were outsiders. Tax ...read more

    Can any church or individual really commit to change as a way of life?

    Luke 19: 1 – 10 / Zach There was once a fitness center that offered $1,000 to anyone who could demonstrate they were stronger than the owner.

    A Palm Sunday sermon; the five short stories in Luke 19 teach us how to properly welcome our King.

    Look at This! Your King is Coming to You! Luke 19:1-48 Sometimes children, teens and adults like to make fun of others. Was there something about you that other kids made fun of?

    What Jesus Knew

    Contributed by Terry Barnhill on May 11, 2010
     | 1,955 views

    He’s telling you not to be surprised “if the world hates you”, and then he’s telling you why it hates you. It’s precisely because “we love our brothers.”

    In preparing the sermon for today, a singular thought pressed on me repeatedly. We read the stories of Jesus. We recite the Creeds of Christendom, and we share the understanding that Jesus was fully God and fully man . . . the divine paradox. But how often are we really willing to make the ...read more

     | 6,866 views

    Should we say "lost" is it another one of those words that are archaic and out of date? No the parable ofthe lost sheep, coin, and son show that God's heart is in seeking, desiring to find the lost. God's will for the lost is clear. His will for the c

    Intro: God’s will for the lost is that none should perish that all should come to repentance. This is 2 Peter 3.9. God’s Word translation gives a wonderfully clear picture of God’s will for people that are separated from Him by sin. “The Lord isn't slow to do what he ...read more
